It is time for the High School years and we will focus on that. Including my daughter's plans and interests as they prepare to leave the nest. In the past we have used Waldorf, Montessori, Lapbooking and TWTM in our homeschool and I will leave the working links up.

Box 2--Math: Second grade: main lesson about the 2's tables, working on addition within 40, and 11, 8, and 3 combo.

Fourth grade: multiplication/division review with 8s and word problem techniques. We are also going to work with visual multiplication techniques.

Box 3--Lapbooks: Second grade: finishing up the horse lapbook and putting it together and then we have some more Ancient Egypt pieces on mummies and architecture to work on over the next few weeks.

Fourth grade: Rabbits as pets, shelter, and feeding.

Box 4--Read Aloud: poetry, Muskrat stories and The Vile Village. We are also working on The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe at bedtime.

Forth grade only:

Box 5--Grammar: contractions and writing sentences.

Box 6--Spelling: List J-4, plurals, adjectives, alliteration.

Box 7--Science: the earth and composting. I am also adding in a lapbook on ecosystems.History: colonial children and the witch trials of Salem.

I think that we have a good line-up for the week. My oldest doesn't care for colonial history and wants to study the presidents more so I may be making changes in the weeks to come on that. So what's in your boxes?
